    Diego Maradona died in prolonged agony after going hours without being treated, autopsy reveals

    DIEGO MARADONA’S autopsy showed he died in prolonged agony after going hours without treatment. The bombshell details have reportedly come to the fore as seven medical professionals stand trial for culpable homicide over Maradona’s death.An autopsy showed Diego Maradona died in prolonged agonyCredit: Getty Images – GettyThe Argentina legend passed away in 2020 from a heart attackCredit: AFPThe Argentina legend and World Cup winner died aged 60 from a heart attack in 2020.And now, a forensic expert has claimed Maradona suffered in pain for 12 hours with an enlarged heart that weighed more than a football.According to Argentina newspaper Clarin, Carlos Mauricio Casinelli showed the court pictures of blood clots which apparently confirmed the “signs of agony” that Maradona went through.He claimed the football icon’s heart became double its size in the time leading to his death.READ MORE ON DIEGO MARADONAWhile Maradona’s organs are also said to have accumulated four-and-a-half litres of fluid due to his heart failure.And Casinelli argued that any competent medical professional should have been able to see what was happening to Maradona before his passing.Casinelli said: “The heart was completely covered in fat and blood clots, which indicate agony.“This is a patient who had been collecting water over the days; that’s not acute.Most read in Football“This was something that was foreseeable. Any doctor examining a patient would find this.“The water he had in his abdomen, in both pleurae and in his heart isn’t normal; it doesn’t form in a day or an hour.Diego Maradona’s daughter fights back tears as she says family live in fear of mafia ahead of trial into his death “It’s been forming over several days. There’s no exact time. It could have been from the time he was expelled (from hospital) until he died.“This is likely to take at least 10 days, given the addition of cirrhosis and myocarditis.”Casinelli went on to describe the dark and dank conditions Maradona was left in before he died.He added: “It was a dark, partitioned room with a bed in the middle and a portable toilet.“It didn’t seem like a suitable place for what we later learned was home hospitalisation.”Casinelli’s claims were backed up by forensic doctor Federico Corosaniti.He said: “From my experience with the generalised edema, the difficulty he must have had breathing and exchanging gases, and the sounds in his lungs that are audible just by bringing his face close.“In my opinion as a doctor, it wasn’t a sudden event.”READ MORE SUN STORIESThe seven medical professionals on trial for culpable homicide over Maradona’s death deny any wrongdoing.They face up to 25 years in prison if found guilty.

    Ex-Man Utd star Memphis Depay sparks mass brawl with cheeky trick as FOUR red cards are handed out in derby clash

    BRAZILIAN football lived up to its typically feisty and manic reputation as Corinthians won their first title in SIX YEARS.Former Manchester United star Memphis Depay was involved in sparking a mass brawl during his side’s 1-0 aggregate win over rivals Palmeiras. A mass brawl unfolded during Corinthians’ clash with Palmeiras on Thursday nightCredit: XAnother incident saw Corinthians defender Felix Torres avoid a card for a foul on Vitor RoqueCredit: xPalmeiras manager Abel Ferreira was left fuming at the decisionCredit: xHe was sent off for his protestsCredit: xTorres was sent off just five minutes later for a second yellow card after another horror challengeCredit: xA hectic second leg saw FOUR red cards and 13 yellows dished out to players and coaching staff over the course of the match.Corinthians had taken a 1-0 lead into the second leg, defending a goal advantage at home to win the title and putting up a fight to do so.That lead was almost thrown away when Palmerias were awarded a penalty in the 68th minute following a rash tackle by Felix Torres.The 28-year-old went straight through the back of Vitor Roque and the referee had no choice but to point to the spot.READ MORE ON MAN UTDUnbelievably, Torres got away without being booked, having already seen yellow in the first half – sending Palmerias manager Abel Ferreira into a meltdown on the touchdown over no red card being shown.Ironically, Ferreira’s fuming outburst saw him shown red by the referee instead.To make matters worse, Palmeiras captain Raphael Veiga missed the spot kick and Corinthians stayed in front.Boss Ferreira was soon vindicated though, as Torres was shown a second yellow card just five minutes later for another shocking tackle on Roque.Most read in FootballCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSFrom there, Corinthians were doing everything they could to hold on to their lead and run down the clock – including time-wasting tactics.That saw Depay try and pull off a little bit of showboating by the corner flag to tick things along, but instead his showy trick caused a mass brawl as tempers boiled over.Memphis Depay balanced on top of the ball to waste timeCredit: xThe showboating saw him shoved off the ballCredit: xPlayers from both sides immediately clashedCredit: xMore players swarmed in and got involvedCredit: xThe insane brawl resulted in another two red cardsCredit: xMillwall fan is beaten up by gang of Crystal Palace supporters after confronting rivals in Selhurt Park standsDepay, who joined the Brazilian league in September, balanced on the ball to prevent the opposition defender from nicking it off him.The former Barcelona star was shoved off the ball as a result and a mass brawl between both sets of players ensued.Players from both sides and the substitutes warming up on the sidelines came together in a moment of madness.While the crowd inside the Corinthians Arena sparked into life at the sight of the fracas.The quarrel was subsequently reviewed by VAR, resulting in Palmeiras substitute goalkeeper Marcelo Lomba and Corinthians midfielder Jose Martinez, who had already been substituted, being shown red cards.Over 18 minutes of additional time were added by the officials at the end of the game, but Corinthians ultimately got over the line to keep the score to 0-0 on the night to win their first title in six years.Depay got the last laugh after helping his side win the titleCredit: EPA More

    Barcelona victory ‘could be overturned with LaLiga leaders suspected of fielding an ineligible player’

    BARCELONA are set to be investigated for fielding an ineligible player during their 3-0 win over Osasuna on Thursday.Osasuna have filed an appeal to the Spanish FA on the grounds of ‘improper fielding” of centre-back Inigo Martinez.Barcelona are reportedly being investigated for their win over OsasunaCredit: RexIt’s claimed that defender Inigo Martinez could have been ineligible to play in the fixtureCredit: RexMartinez, 33, played the full 90 minutes in the LaLiga clash despite withdrawing from international duty with Spain the week prior.The former Athletic Bilbao and Real Sociedad defender withdrew from Luis de la Fuente’s squad after a medical report from Barcelona detailed that he was suffering from a knee injury, as per a statement from the Spanish national team.Martinez was then replaced in the Spain squad by Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen.And Osasuna claim that Martinez’s inclusion in the LaLiga tie breaches Article 5 of Fifa’s rulebook.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLA rule within that article effectively stipulates that any player who withdraws from international break with injury cannot play for their club within the five days following their nation’s last international match – unless explicitly agreed by the national federation.That could spell trouble for Martinez, who featured against Osasuna just four days after Spain’s Nations League second leg against Netherlands on Sunday.Now Barcelona could face punishment if found to have breached the regulations.A points deduction or a reversal of the result have both been touted as potential punishments.Most read in FootballBournemouth’s Dean Huijsen replaced Martinez in the Spain squadCredit: RexCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSThat could have a detrimental impact on Barca’s season after the win over Osasuna sent them three points clear of rivals Real Madrid at the top of LaLiga.Osasuna, meanwhile, are desperate for points as they sit just one point above the relegation zone.Horror moment Barcelona star finds his tooth on the pitch after losing it in battle with Real Betis defender For now, it is unclear if the Spanish FA granted permission for Martinez to withdraw from the camp or not.While the last-minute nature of the match could also be a mitigating factor for the 27-time La Liga champions.Both Barcelona and Osasuna were given less than a week to prepare for the match after the fixture was rescheduled to Thursday night from it’s original date of March 8 last Friday, following the sudden death of Barcelona club doctor Carles Minarro Garcia.What does Article 5 say?Here’s a look at the working of Annex 1 of the regulations on the status and transfer of players…”A player who, due to injury or illness, is unable to attend a call-up of the association of the country of his or her nationality, must, if requested by that association, undergo a medical examination by a doctor designated by the association. “If the player so wishes, such medical examination will be carried out in the territory of the association where he or she is registered.”A player called up by his association for one of its representative teams is not entitled, unless otherwise agreed by the association concerned, to play for the club to which he belongs during the period that his release lasts or should last, in accordance with the provisions of this Annex, plus an additional period of five days.” More

    Controversial goalkeeping tactic made famous by Jordan Pickford set to become thing of the past as new rule is clarified

    GOALKEEPERS will be allowed eight seconds from catching the ball to releasing it, in the latest attempt to cut down on time-wasting.The rule change – which comes into effect this summer – will prevent keepers from using a clever tactic often associated with Jordan Pickford.A controversial goalkeeping tactic is set to become thing of the pastReferees will have to count up with their fingers from three seconds to eightFans joked that Liverpool No 1 Alisson mimicked Pickford in a Merseyside derbyUnder the new rules, goalkeepers will concede a corner if they hold onto the ball for more than eight seconds.The change will stamp out keepers lying on the ball after routine collections in the penalty box.But while Everton star Pickford gets stick for this dark-art metric, virtually every other Prem stopper does it too.And fans laughed their heads off when they accused Liverpool No 1 Alisson of mimicking Pickford in the Merseyside derby in 2022.READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWSThe law currently states that teams will concede an indirect free-kick after six seconds, but it is rarely applied.Although, referees have dished out more yellow cards for different time-wasting tactics this season, including delaying the goal kick.But keepers will surely now move quicker, now that the rule change will see them concede a corner for violating the eight-second law.The count is intended to begin when the keeper has the ball in his hands or is bouncing it on the pitch – so no more flopping to the ground for ten seconds.Most read in FootballCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSAfter just three seconds, referees will raise their hands and fingers to count down to zero, with a corner being awarded if the keeper has not played the ball.Positive results in trials across England, Italy and Malta have prompted the games rule-makers, the International Football Association Board (Ifab), to change the law for the start of the 2025-26 season.What is FFP? How Financial Fair Play is affecting Man Utd and Arsenal in January transfer windowThis rule will be implemented worldwide by 1 July, at all levels of the game from elite to amateur.It will also be in place for the Club World Cup, which runs from 15 June to 13 July.The new tournament features Manchester City and Chelsea, so Premier League fans will be able to see how Ederson, Stefan Ortega, Robert Sanchez or Filip Jorgensen cope with that countdown for the first time.Teams can also expect early casualties too.We already know how strictly rules are enforced when they are first brought in.Just ask Declan Rice and Leandro Trossard, who both got handed second yellow cards early this season for delaying the restart.

    Arsenal files: Bukayo Saka and Gabriel contract update as Real Madrid consider transfer punt on £100m Gunners star

    A MONUMENTAL summer awaits Arsenal with incomings and departures aplenty.But there is also a pressing need to tie down their Holy Trinity for the foreseeable future.Mikel Arteta will soon need to decide on how to tackle Bukayo Saka’s contract futureCredit: APWilliam Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes are also out of contract in 2027Credit: GettyBukayo Saka, William Saliba and Gabriel are all out of contract in June 2027 – a daunting prospect with Mikel Arteta’s Emirates project so close to landing major silverware after five years of promise and progress.This simply cannot become a saga that is dragged into next season.Liverpool are a prime example of the mess it can cause with Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold set to walk away in a few months.But Arsenal fans can be fairly confident of avoiding a similar meltdown with Arteta at the helm – a manager who has the knack when it comes to convincing world class talent that North London is the place to be, and that the future remains bright and exciting.Arteta’s ability to win one trophy since December 2019 while keeping hold of his best players and strengthening year on year – as well as maintaining the trust and support of the board and the majority of the fan base – should not be underestimated.And when it comes to correcting a turned head or wandering eye of a player considering his options, Arteta often finds the right words to enthuse and motivate – just like Sir Alex Ferguson did in those early United days before finally tasting league glory in 1993.Arteta is honest and respectful, but he is also ruthless and direct.Behind the scenes, he enjoys heated debates with his staff and players during good times and bad to constantly get the very best out of them and to never feel comfortable.BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERSWhen trying to land new players, Arteta plays an active role in the negotiation process, a dominant voice in presentations that leaves those in the room in awe of his level of tactical detail and immense personalisation and passion.Battling Manchester City for Declan Rice’s signature in the summer of 2023, Arteta and ex-sporting director Edu double-teamed the sit-down discussions in person, using the analogy of: ‘The train is leaving – are you getting on board?’Arsenal Fan TV presenter Robbie credits ‘nature’s ozempic’ for incredible body Rice’s camp had met with several clubs but Arsenal and Arteta’s proposal had blown everyone else’s out of the water.The art of persuasion is also about subtlety, knowing when to push and when to back off.Granit Xhaka was practically out the door in October 2019 after being booed off by his fans and stripped of the captaincy by Unai Emery before Arteta took over two months later.In a heartfelt sit-down with Xhaka in his office, Arteta pleaded with the player to stay until the end of the season, but said he would respect his decision with his family a priority.Xhaka ended up staying, signed a new contract a year later and played a vital role in Arsenal’s transformation into title challengers before departing in July 2023.Talks on horizonSo what of Saka, Saliba and Gabriel? SunSport understands that Arsenal are keen to hold talks with the trio in the coming months. The club’s policy in the past has been to avoid allowing top talents getting into the last two years of their deals.But Arteta is usually hesitant to get into negotiations mid-season. On this occasion, they still have a Champions League quarter final to look forward to.While a deal for Hale End star Saka, 23, is a formality, Arteta knows Real Madrid are sniffing around Frenchman Saliba. In the unlikely event Arsenal were open to selling, he would be valued well past the £100m mark.At 24, Saliba has spoken of his desire to one day be the best defender in the world, and recognises he is best placed to continue his development in the Premier League under Arteta – so long as Arsenal are competing for and winning major titles, which is now the case.Gabriel, 27, has eye-watering interest from Saudi Arabia. A move was blocked in August 2023 which saw Arteta briefly drop the Brazilian to make sure his performances would not suffer as a result.He has since emerged as one of the Prem’s most complete players and his family is settled and loving life in London.Arteta has Arsenal’s prestige and history on his side, pointing to the fact this group can go down as club legends if they lift a Prem or European title.Saliba and Gabriel are coming into their peak years. Uprooting now – with a World Cup next summer – would be a huge risk to their form.There will also be a nudge towards their rivals. While Manchester City are undergoing a major rebuild, Arne Slot’s Liverpool may well lose three of their best players to contract disputes this summer.There is a belief within the club that Arsenal are perfectly positioned to take advantage next term, especially as they look set to finally end their search for a top No.9 this summer – the missing piece.Getting all three to commit by the start of next season will be a huge relief, but Arsenal are confident in Arteta’s power of persuasion.THE NUMBERS BEHIND ISAK VS EKITIKEALEXANDER ISAK is the striker all Arsenal fans want to see arrive this summer.But should Newcastle stand firm in their stance that he is not for sale, Mikel Arteta will have to look elsewhere.SunSport revealed this week that Eintracht Frankfurt’s Hugo Ekitike is being monitored as an alternative, and the young Frenchman compares well to Isak.Ekitike was even targeted by Newcastle before they signed the Swede.The France Under-21 international has a similar profile to the Toon forward, tall and imposing but sharp on the ball and blessed with pace.Alexander Isak is a prime target for ArsenalCredit: GettyHugo Ekitike is also on Arsenal’s list this summerCredit: AFPWhile Isak has four more goals in five fewer games, Ekitike has three more assists and is not far behind when it comes to goal contributions per 90 minutes with 0.88 compared to the Newcastle man’s stunning 0.97.The 22-year-old spent half of the season playing alongside Omar Marmoush before the Egyptian’s move to Manchester City and has stepped up since his departure.Ekitike bagged three goals in the two games after Marmoush left for The Etihad.The stats show that the Frankfurt forward is constantly involved up top, having more shots and shots on target compared to Isak per game, though the latter has a better conversion rate.While Isak is clearly the more complete forward, any signing which isn’t the £150million rated Newcastle striker will have an element of risk.Ekitike is confident that, after learning a lot during his struggles at Paris Saint-Germain, he is ready to take the next step.A PIECE OF CAKE FOR NWANERISUNSPORT can exclusively reveal that Ethan Nwaneri was given celebratory cupcakes on the plane back from England U21 duty this week to celebrate his 18th birthday.And the Hale End star has left a lasting impression on his Young Lions teammates, not just from his brilliant debut goal in the 4-2 win over Portugal at the Hawthorns on Monday.SunSport understands that Nwaneri, along with Ipswich Town’s Omari Hutchinson – formerly of the Arsenal academy – were often the last ones to leave the training pitches at St George’s Park during their international camp.His professionalism, attitude and mentality are second to none, highly impressive for someone of his age and limited experience so far.There are those in the FA and the England senior set-up who feel it is only a matter of time before Nwaneri struts his stuff in the seniors under Thomas Tuchel.Ethan Nwaneri was the toast of England’s U21s on international dutyCredit: GettyMERINO’S BUSY BREAKMIKEL MERINO has not taken his foot off the pedal during this international break.The Arsenal midfielder – currently deputising as a striker with Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus out for the season – played a combined 12 minutes off the bench across two Nations League games for Spain against the Netherlands, scoring in last week’s 2-2 draw.But not satisfied with that, he also visited his old pals back at former club Real Sociedad.He then got in some extra strength and conditioning training with trusted Spanish personal trainer Miguel Azanza.After breaking his shoulder in his first Arsenal training session following his summer switch, Merino has been working overtime to ensure he remains fit and available for Arteta.The work with Azanza included weighted ball throws and band work to maintain his shoulder strength heading into the home stretch to the season.SunSport understands Arteta and Arsenal’s coaching staff have been impressed with Merino’s physicality and competitiveness in training sessions, not one to hold back in challenges and aerial duels with teammates.Mikel Merino has been a hit up top for the GunnersCredit: Getty More

If I know how to explain it, I will do so because I like to be clear.”I was a player and like to use that experience — when you are honest with someone, they can take it. In the beginning maybe it is hard but they will understand.READ MORE SUN STORIES”I’m quite honest with my players and sometimes they know they have to move on at the end of the season.”We can talk about that in the end — now there are still a lot of games to play.
